5 months ago Posted on 08th May 2024 by Miss Whittaker Nursery’s ‘field to fork’ week! Over the last week or two in nursery we have been growing our own cress. We have learned about what plants need to grow and cared for them throughout several stages of growth. On Wednesday we harvested our crops to produce some delicious three cheese and cress muffins. We all had a brilliant time following the recipe, stirring the mixture and smelling the amazing aroma of the muffins as they cooked! The children loved delivering muffins around school and even got to take one home at the end of their session. You are all super chefs nursery, well done!
5 months ago Posted on 02nd May 2024 by Miss Whittaker Nursery become ‘super shakers’ to make butter! This week in nursery we have been food producers for a couple of sessions. We all worked brilliantly as a ‘super shaking’ team to turn cream into butter. The children were amazed it changed from a liquid into spreadable butter that they could eat on some nice fresh bread! We then went for a walk around school to deliver our delicious bread and butter to some of the other wonderful people who help us in nursery.

In the morning they went on a parade around the field, learned all about Saint George and the dragon and rein-acted the story using the castle, kindly brought in by Mrs Porter! In the afternoon we coloured our own dragons and learned some of the words to a catchy Saint George song!
